Across my journey building companies, advising operators, and structuring global partnerships, one truth has always held:

The biggest plays are often the ones you can’t see.

That’s why I started The Fifth Quarter — to reveal the invisible leverage that drives extraordinary outcomes. Each conversation follows a systematic 5-segment journey, designed to strip away myths, break down pivotal decisions, and surface the mental operating systems of elite founders, investors, and creators. I’m based between Vancouver and Abu Dhabi — at the intersection of Western venture building and GCC market access. This perspective gives me a front-row seat to the capital allocators, operators, and category creators shaping the next decade of business. This isn’t another founder podcast. It’s an unpolished look behind the curtain: the quiet moves, the hidden edges, and the hard-won wisdom that you only get after the buzzer sounds. If you’re building in public, compounding in private, or investing in long-game people — this is your room.
